pegrae's journey oh happy me

Hi Pegrae,

I just read your blog post and we share the same first appointment date of April 14th 2016 to see the weight loss clinic and get the process started.

I'm near Sydney, Australia. Desperately want to lose the weight and be healthy, but remain unconvinced the stomach sleeve surgery is for me? I like the idea of faster weightless and am surrounded by people who have had this surgery, so I have seen some great results. I have also noticed it does not fully work for some people, hoping that I am the side that it works well for...

I am concerned about the excess skin issues and further operations so am hoping I am one of those people whose skin shrinks well.

On the positive side I am really looking forward to losing weight and losing the associated health risks I currently have. I am really looking forward to having more energy and more life as a result of feeling healthier and lighter but also happier.

Good luck with your weightless surgery process. I look forward to reading how you are going.

Jela

Yes I too noticed very few start with the initial consultation date. However my blog dates back to 2008 when I first got Medicare and tried to get the lapband. If your interested in my journey to walk again here is my blog.
